I just now figured out the real benefit of blogging. For me it’s quickly replacing the journal I never updated as a place to organize and flesh out thoughts on different topics. Here’s a “for instance”:
I’ve spent the last few days trying to figure out exactly what I wanted to write this month’s editorial about. For once, the problem is too many topics, instead of the opposite (and much more frequent) problem. And, to complicate things further, I also want to write the “official” farewell to Josh (hopefully without being too sappy) this month too, so the topic needs to be short and sweet.
After writing up a fairly long post for this blog on the folly of dedicated processors for tasks that don’t really require them–I’m looking at you Ageia and Bigfoot–I realized that with a little tweaking, it would make a great column.
